ILCVAiShares Morningstar Value ETF

LRGFAiShares U.S. Equity Factor ETF

In short

ILCV Value done the thorough way: roughly 400 large- and mid-cap US stocks screened on five separate value measures, not just cheap book value. Running since 2004 at four basis points, it's one of the cheapest tickets into the value factor.

LRGF Four factor tilts (value, quality, momentum, low volatility) blended into one roughly 300-stock U.S. portfolio, priced at 0.08%: a fraction of what the typical multifactor fund charges.

Stated mandate

ILCV The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. large- and mid-cap stocks selected with value-oriented measures including forward earnings, book value, sales, cash flow, and dividend yield.

LRGF The fund seeks to track an index of U.S. stocks selected through value, quality, momentum, low-volatility, and size factors. It is positioned as a diversified core U.S. equity portfolio using a multifactor strategy.

Why people hold it

  • ILCV Charges 0.04% a year against a 0.32% median for its factor peer group. Undercuts well-regarded rivals like VONV (0.06%) and FNDX (0.25%).
  • Value gets defined five ways: forward earnings, book value, sales, cash flow and dividend yield. Wider lens than a single price-to-book screen.ishares.com
  • Spreads the bet across about 400 large- and mid-cap names and distributes quarterly.
  • Trading since 2004 and now a multi-billion-dollar fund, it ranks among the strongest implementations in its factor cohort.
  • LRGF Charges 0.08% a year against a 0.32% median for multifactor peers. Factor machinery at close to plain index-fund pricing.
  • One ticker, four screens: value, quality, momentum and low volatility, spread across about 300 U.S. stocks instead of a single-factor bet.ishares.com
  • Live since 2015 and now a multi-billion-dollar iShares fund that pays quarterly. This strategy has been through real market cycles, not a backtest.
  • Stands in the top quartile of a 107-fund multifactor cohort, one of the stronger implementations in a very crowded field.

Worth knowing

  • ILCV One of the quieter tickers in its category. Thin volume means spreads matter more here than on a mega-cap index fund, and limit orders are the usual tool.
  • Value-only by design. It skips the market's priciest growth leaders, so it moves differently from a total-market fund in both directions.ishares.com
  • Large and mid caps only. Small-cap value sits outside the mandate.
  • LRGF Blending four factors can mute any single one, and the mix can drift from a plain cap-weighted large-cap index in either direction.
  • Straight-style peers go cheaper still: IUSG and VYM run at 0.04%. The factor engineering carries a small premium over vanilla exposure.
  • Moderately traded rather than one of the category's most active names, so order size and timing matter more than with the largest core funds.
